Card's use of "extra" physics is very good, unlike many sci-fi authors his stories follow the "rules" of their particular universe very well, although i'm not a nit-picker, stories that break their own rules i often find distracting.
since my computer hardware is worth around $2000 or so new (1000 machine, 800 camera, 300 monitor) and safeware calculated it to be $40 a year (being a poor collage student) i am definitely going to get my shit insured, losing $2k would fuck me over pretty bad, but $40/year for 4-5 years wouldn't be too bad at all for the peace of mind knowing that I can actually use my camera rather than just play with it in my room.
actually it's worth it even if the odds are against the loss, because the point of insurance is that if the unlikely shit hits the fan you don't get fucked
i like
@echo off
cls
echo "Please stand by while I format your hard drive..."
dir \/s >nul
echo "Your computer is now trashed. Thank you."
pause >nul
better because it looks less like a batch file when running
did your dad have eMachines computers? My old eMachines computer worked great with windows ME, it was as stable as 98 but had system resore for when i fucked it up real bad. (i was actually able to do DVD to VCD rip/decrypt/re-encode on a 533 Celeron/ 256 meg PC100 overnight.
yup, the real reason for this change is to raise the barrier for entry into the movie biz, the advent of quality digital video and highspeed internet scares the MPAA shitless.
it's not a regional thing, American tv just sucks donkey dick. The only channels i ever watch are comedy central(cable), scifi(cable), and cartoon network(cable)
it is file info, resolution, dimensions, bitrate, keywords, framerate, previous owners of the file, access history, what colors are most common in a picture, who is in a pic.
basically any information about a file you may want to know to sort or find that file
actually I use Windows as a base for Firebird, Thunderbird, Gaim, OO.o, GIMP, Filezilla, DevC++, and CDex
and on the proprietary side
Everquest, UT2k4, Pinnacle studio 8
Slashdot Mirror
or modify the USB storage module to require the root password before mounting a USB drive.
I already shop at Amazon and Circuit City you insensitive clod!
ehehe I also noticed the gui updater crashes *every* time.... just use apt and/or yum like a normal person
the thinkgeek lighter-cam would be perfect for covert shit, assuming the quality of the images is good

except if a file is corrupted while being altered it is gone, while NTFS can recover the file

what are you talking about? most modern games use 3D models.
that is pretty cool.
stand alone burners suck, until DVD media drops below $.25/disk I want to be able to edit before I burn.
